Rewilding your heart for wisdom and kindness
Wild Quest is a four-day retreat including a 24-hour solo and fast in nature in the remote Southern Free State – 2 hours drive from Bloemfontein.
Wild Quest is a vision quest and rite of passage to mark a significant life transition or stage of personal growth.
This passage strips away routine and comfort, immersing us in solitude, nature, fasting, and community. It calls us to awaken, stretch our limits, and find courage in our vulnerability.
A Quest is no small feat; facing a night alone, fasting with minimal shelter, shifts our perception of self and life.
As dawn breaks after a night-long vigil, it carries the promise of renewal, the seeds of hope, and the stirrings of a more purposeful life. In the stillness of the wild, transformation begins—challenging, raw, and real.
The Wild Quest is a furnace and threshold to authentic change.
Purpose
To connect deeply with oneself, nature, and the spiritual realm to gain clarity on personal direction, overcome challenges, and access deeper meaning in life.
Timeline
Arrival by 14:00 followed by orientation, dinner and guided deep work.
Preparation for the solo continues the second day and involves reflection, setting intentions and letting go of unresourceful memories, beliefs and behaviours. Questers get an opportunity to select their location for their solo.
Before sunrise on the third morning questers depart for their 24 hour solitude and fast. Questers will be prepared to pay attention to nature, their thoughts, feelings, and dreams that arise during the solitary time
With sunrise on the last day questers return to the guided circle in base camp to process and share their experience and insights. It is followed by a communal breakfast. A session to set intentions for the future and mapping the next step, a closing ceremony, lunch and departure by 14:00.
To participate, questers need to be in good physical and mental health.
For the best outcome questers are advised to only take a pen and journal, leaving their phones, watches, books, food at the base camp during the solo.
